Romeo, Save Me.
EPOV (Straight after the phone call)
The phone slid out of my hand, just as quickly as the tears had filled my eyes.
Someone had hurt my baby? not only hurt her, but taken her away from me? I was heartbroken. More than I had ever been before.
And it hurt.
I was so zoned out in my own depressing thoughts that I never realised Emmett was shaking me.
"Dude! Snap out of it!" He shouted.
I shook my head and focused. Alice was on the floor crying and sobbing hysterically with her arms wrapped around her legs, hiding her face. Jasper was rubbing her back, promising it would be okay.
Rosalie must have disappeared off to the bathroom or something. And Emmett was still shaking me madly.
I looked around the room, and it spun, wildly. I couldn't think. So I didn't realise I'd been walking towards my bedroom door. I pushed it open, Ignoring Emmett shouting me to stop. And walked in. I sat on my bed, and looked around. Bella's things were still lying around. Her T-shirt was lay on the end of my bed. I felt fresh tears wash over my dry ones as I picked it up and smelt it. It smelled just like her.
Hope suddenly filled my body, it got all warm and my head spun again. So I took one more smell of her T-shirt and shoved it under my pillow and ran out of my bedroom door, straight into Emmett. I steadied myself and headed for the door, taking my coat on the way. Everyone followed. Rosalie was there now.
"Edward, where are you going?" Rosalie asked, grabbing my shoulder.
"Where do you think?" I shouted, opening the door, "To find my Bella."
"We're all coming with you, Edward." Jasper said.
I hesitated, staring at them all. All there faces torn and tear filled. And then sighed and nodded. They grabbed there coats and we headed to my volvo.
I stopped dead on my feet at the bottom of the steps. Alice sobbed loudly at the sight of the cans and take away. It must have been Bella's. Rosalie screamed, and we all turned to look at the splatters of blood all over the steps. I grabbed Rosalie and hid her head under my shoulder. And headed to my volvo, but was interupted by the drunk Ken.
"Hey! Is Bella home yet?" He asked, worry coated his words.
I frowned, and told Rosalie to go to Emmett, and walked over to him.
"What?"
"Yeah. I don't know how you didn't hear the screams, it was terrible. The way he grabbed her..." He shook his head. Almost crying now. Him and Bella had been friends for a while. Her generous nature made her a lot of friends around here.
"You seen it happen?" I asked.
He sat on the bench properly now. And patted the space next to him. I sat there, and looked into his eyes.
"What happened?" I asked seriously.
"Okay, so, she gave me money when she went toward town. So I got some vodka. And then when she walked back, I thanked her. She was just about to go up the steps when this guy just came out of thin air and grabbed her from the back. She screamed and dropped her bags. I can't remember it properly, but I remember clearly the sight when she headed for the stairs. He grabbed her foot, and she just went flying into the steps..." I cringed at the thought, "The screams she made were terrible. I don't remember much. She made a run for it then, running faster than I could have imagined. She must have been terrified. He ran after her of course. Straight for the woods over there. I could hear the screams not long after, scarier than I could have imagined." He looked terrified.
"Why didn't you help her?" I asked.
He looked guilty. "I tried, I shouted. I can't even remember much. Except he said to her 'scream again and I'll kill you.' I think something like that. I did try Edward, I wouldn't leave her like that if I knew I could help. I would have called the police, but I was in shock. And then you walked out. Edward, I'll help you as much as I can if you want. Actually, I don't need your permission. I love Bella like a daughter. I'll do whatever I can. I'll even stop drinking for her. Till she is home." He looked so sad. I felt sorry for him, having to watch that and then tell the painful story of his friend getting kidnapped.
I put my hand on his shoulder "Sure, Ken. Thank you so much. I'll bring her home. I promise."
I gave him a few notes, and then walked to my car.
I got into the volvo, Jasper was in the passenger seat, Emmett was in the back, in between both Alice and Rosalie, arms around them both, and saying things will be okay.
I started the car.
"Should we call the police? we can't handle this ourselves!" Jasper said.
"No. They'll want to know how we met her. And she is a wanted prostitute. She'll go behind bars!" I shouted.
"We have a tracking device. We can track the phone, Edward." Emmett said.
"No. I know where she was taken. I know what happened." I said.
The girls gasped.
"Tell us everything, Edward. I mean it." Rosalie warned.
I sighed, "Long story short. She got jumped outside the flat. She tried to make a run for it but he grabbed her leg and she fell on the steps head first. Hence the blood. Then she did a runner, and he went after her. Ken shortly heard her screaming from the woods." I explained, not taking my eyes off of the road.
"We're going to get her back, Edward, we will. Don't worry." Jasper tried to give us all hope.
"Yeah, he'll pay." Emmett growled. Trust him.
"Edward, slow down, you're going over a hundred!" Jasper shouted, grabbing the steering wheel. The car skidded, but I shoved Jasper off before he could he could get us all killed and gave him my deadly glare.
I then sighed, and sped up faster.
"Where are we going anyway. The woods were just there." Jasper pointed out. He was confused. I think everyone was.
"I need to think. We'll go there in a few minutes. Just please, please give me a time to think!" I begged.
They all looked at eachother. And then Jasper nodded thoughtfully.
"She is our friend to, Edward." Jasper said after a few moments of perfect peaceful silence. Except from the girls sobbing in the back. I didn't realise Alice could cry so much none stop before.
I turned to glare at Jasper. He looked into my eyes for a minute. And then just sighed and turned to look out the window.
After about 15 minutes I turned the car around. Alice and Rosalie were asleep on Emmett's shoulders. He was inerpropriately staring down Rosalie's shirt. And Jasper was still looking out the window.
"What do we do when we get back?" I asked. Turning at the round about.
"I don't know. I suppose we look in the woods for clues... Or her.." Jasper said. Looking down at the last bit. I knew what he meant.
I shook it from my mind and nodded.
"I don't want to put a negative mood on things. Or upset you, Edward. But what do we do if she is... you know. And you don't want to tell the police?" Emmett said. He had to didn't he.
My face turned red with fury. "She's alive!" I shouted.
Rosalie jumped, waking up. "Whats going on?" She asked, rubbing her eyes.
"Nothing babe." Emmett reasurred her. Looking at me from the corner of his eyes worriedly.
Once we got to the woods entrance, we pulled up behind some trees and headed into the trees. I had to take a torch because it was so dark. The only thing keeping the woods alight was the moon shining inbetween the tree tops.
Jasper was carrying Alice because she wouldn't wake up.
"I should have left her in the car!" He moaned.
"Whats the problem? she's as light as a feather, I could carry her. I will if you don't shut up moaning!" Rosalie had returned to herself obviously. Probably trying to put whats going on to the back of her mind.
Jasper grunted.
"If theres a weirdo kidnapping girls out there I don't think that would have been ideal, Jasper." Emmett said.
"Yeah, right. It's Alice. She has been living on the streets for god knows how long. She's strong." Jasper replied, smug.
"So has Bella." Rosalie said, glaring. "That didn't help her, did it now!"
Jasper bit his lip. Regretting what he said. I was trying to ignore them all unsucsessfully as I was walking ahead.
"..Edward..." Emmett murmered.
I turned around. Everyone was staring at the ground.
There, right in front of us were drag marks. Obviously were Bella had been pulled away.
Rosalie was crying, Jasper was on his knees. Trying to stay steady so Alice wouldn't wake up. But it was too late. As Alice must have saw the drag marks, and started screaming literally her head off. Jasper sighed, and stood her up.
Then her eyes went wider -if possible- and she picked something black up. It was Bella's phone. And It was trashed.
Alice looked at us with terrified eyes "what do we do?"
